Project The testing of the ASC400 Screw Chiller, held on May 6, 2017 at the new ZCA Research and Development Center, was conducted in the presence of the General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) consultant and a customer representative. During the event, the customer requested to see the results when the unit was pushed to operate at 130°F ambient temperature.

The chiller unit operated without lapses, displaying remarkable performance. The chiller passed the tests under severe actual conditions from 115°F up to 130°F ambient temperatures. Upon witnessing the strict compliance tests, the customer and the consultant expressed their confidence in Zamil products and facilities and the capacity of the product to perform at variable conditions beyond the original design specifications.
